Computer modeling and experimental work on the astrobiological implications of the martian subsurface ionising radiation environment
Any microbial life extant in the top meters of the martian subsurface is likely to be held dormant for long periods of time by the current permafrost conditions. In this potential habitable zone, a major environmental hazard is the ionising radiation field generated by the flux of exogenous energeti...
